Alleged shooting target gets protection order

Butler police say that a car linked to a shooting incident last week on North Sixth Avenue has been impounded in Pittsburgh, and a Butler woman who claims she and her 2-year-old son were the targets of the shooting has been granted a temporary Protection from Abuse Order against her ex-boyfriend.

That shooting late Thursday night, investigators believe, involved an exchange of gunfire between two men. No one was injured.

No arrests have been made and police are still tight-lipped about their investigation.

But a Temporary Protection From Abuse order obtained Monday by Kirisa Taimuty of Butler said she and her 2-year-old son need protection from Raheem Robinson of East Carson Street, Pittsburgh, after Thursday's gunfire.

Taimuty , in court documents, writes that she and another woman witnessed the shooting Thursday, and claims that she and her son were the targets of shots fired by Robinson.

Robinson has not been charged in the shooting case.
